FRIDAY, JULY 11, 1924 DENY MOVE TO FORCE DRILLING Reports that suit would be brought, if possible, to compel the Wonder Oil Co. to have the Brookhurst well drilled to 6,000 feet, on the ground that good showings of oil had been made, were denied by one of the lessors, who admitted, however, that the owner of the Siddel property under lease had been dissatisfied. The owner himself, it is said, had some remarkable samples of core, showing the presence of oil, and other lessors were convinced of their own knowledge that there was oil. The Standard Oil Co. continues to drill in its test well near Placentia-ave and Wagner road, and is reported to have reached 5600 feet or so. LAY SLAYING TO SCOUT OUTBREAK MANILA, July 11.—In what authorities declare to be the latest outgrowth of the mutiny of Philippine scouts, Private Tamayo was found dead in his cot at the Sternberg army hospital today with knife wounds in his breast. El Debate, a native paper, declared today that an American lawyer of communist tendencies was implicated in the outbreak of the scouts. Formal dismissal of insubordinate Filipino scouts was preceoling slowly today because of the technical difficulties connected with releasing of such a large body of men at one time. "All Filipino scouts are continuing their regular training schedules. The cases of 21 men, all from the 57th infantry, have been completed and are now before the commanding general of the Philippines department for approval," an official statement issued by army headquarters said. The secret constitution signed by Mutineers was a singular mixture of childishness and bombastic statements.

FEMINISM FLU This chemisier-blouse has a masculine aspect which is characteristic of the really smart blouse goes with the stern lily suit of the moment.

A plain band about five inches wide and cut in one piece with firm one's suspicion that it may be an overblouse forever. Since, however, feminism out, the color is a luscious pink, and a tiny, quite extravagant pocket wags a dainty flap at world from each side of the body.

Crawford, wealthy rancher, Wm. Downs and Taylor Downs, the trio charged with dynamiting to his death J. J. McGuire eccentric blacksmith, has been the outstanding feature of the examinations of jurors now completed. With the impanelling of the last juror, both defense and prosecution were prepared today to begin the long legal battle over one of the most unusual murders in the history of this district. Wm. Downs has charged that following the dynamiting of McGuire, a certain man claiming to be a Kleagle of the Ku Klux Klan urged him to join the order to insure himself "against unfair prosecution." Later Downs says, he submitted to an examination preliminary to initiation into the klan at which a lie detector was used. When he was questioned at the district attorney's office, Downs claims he saw the same men and the same lie detector.
